Author: John Brunner
Date: 1965-00-00

Note: Delivered as a speech at the 1965 London Worldcon, with Actually in the subtitle as given in the program book. First published in full in the fanzine Niekas 14, December 1965, without Actually.

3/6?Prior to decimilisation (1968-1971), UK books were priced in shillings, or shillings and pence, where 20 shillings equals one pound and 12 old pence equals one shilling. Shillings were indicated with a variety of suffixes, e.g. 3s, 3', 3", 3/ all mean 3 shillings. Any number after that is additional pence, usually 6 (half a shilling) but sometimes 3 or 9 (a quarter of a shilling or three-quarters of a shilling).
